Lots of news below!
ogSec is thrilled to announce the release of our first batch of courses in the Code Review & Architecture Fundamentals series! Drawing on years of experience in reviewing complex web applications and SaaS solutions, this series is crafted for individuals looking to elevate their skills in app security testing and code review.
Our initial set of courses provides the essential groundwork for preparing and conducting effective assessments. By completing these courses, you’ll:
- Gain foundational knowledge of the core technologies commonly found in modern web applications
- Develop insights into data flows, storage, and processing, enabling you to pinpoint areas of focus during assessments
- Learn a threat modelling approach that gives you a strategic perspective for identifying critical vulnerabilities and assets that require coverage
Many security professionals find starting a code review daunting and often struggle to focus effectively, especially for mature code bases and complex solutions. These introductory courses aim to help solve this challenge by showing you how to leverage client insights, materials, and initial code analysis to guide your assessment strategy and establish a solid foundation for your review.
To celebrate the release, we’re offering early bird pricing now through Black Friday and to the end of Cyber Monday (2nd December) on our Assessment Prep and Threat Modelling courses. Don’t miss this opportunity to get in on the fundamentals with a discount!
Stay tuned—over the coming months, we’ll be releasing additional courses that delve into the technical details of architecture and implementation reviews. For a full overview of current and upcoming courses, visit our courses page.

In this course, you’ll learn to use threat modelling to identify potential vulnerabilities proactively. Beyond just a development tool, threat modelling allows you to prioritise targets strategically during your review. Building on your assessment preparation, you’ll explore how to pinpoint and assess risks to the system’s key assets. Rather than simply seeking individual vulnerabilities, you’ll adopt a broader perspective on security, focusing on the most significant attack paths and enhancing your assessment strategy.
